UAS Photogrammetry Simplified

Powerful Aerial Mapping Software That Bridges Beginner Ease and Expert Capability

Based on state‐of‐the‐art Trimble Inpho technology, known for 30 years of digital aerial photogrammetry leadership the new UASMaster module is bridging the gap between simple near black‐box workflows for non‐photogrammetrists and photogrammetry expert workflows.

Datasheet

It combines very intuitive guided workflows with flexibility, highly effective interactive editing tools and thorough quality assurance reports required by the advanced user.

UASMaster has an open market concept and therefore is able to process data from almost every hardware vendor for UAS. It works with fixed wing vehicles as well as with helicopter‐type aircraft. The software proved successful processing even with hand-held cameras, survey‐balloons and other types of unmanned aerial systems.

UASMaster includes advanced technology that has been customized to provide high quality results from the special characteristics of UAS data. The incorporation of specialized computer‐vision algorithms produces very accurate results automatically, with minimal manual interaction. Optimized processing is available for UAS with GPS support and high-quality direct-georeferencing (e.g. with Applanix APX-15). This ensures a stable and reliable photogrammetric system delivering excellent results without requiring specialized photogrammetry knowledge or experience.

Features

A Complete UAS Photogrammetry Workflow Built for Every Level of Expertise

Complete photogrammetric workflow in one product:

  • Full automatic geo-referencing, calibration, refinement and analysis
  • Create colorized dense point clouds, surface models and bare earth terrain models
  • Refine and edit terrain models, collect GIS data and vector maps on top of stereo 3D imagery
  • Create digital orthophotos, classic orthos as well as true orthos
Generate imaging point clouds as a cost-effective alternative to laser scans, benefit from detailed images to acquire GIS data and transfer most of your survey work to the convenience of your office. UASMaster combines ease of use with the full power of a photogrammetric workstation.

The software bridges the gap between simple near black-box workflows for non-photogrammetristsĀ and photogrammetry expert workflows. UASMaster includes advanced technology that has been customized to provide high quality results from the special characteristics of UAS data. It easily integrates into the Inpho world of photogrammetry, into Trimble Business Center asĀ well as into many 3rd party workflows.

With its open market concept UASMaster is able to process data from almost every hardware vendor for UAS. It works with acquired dataĀ from fixed-wing vehicles as well as well as with multi-copters and even hand-held cameras. For 3D reconstruction projects, depending on project requirements, the only mandatory data is imagery – no need to know camera parameters, approximate image georeferences or ground control.
  • Quick black-box or multi-step processingĀ with quality-optimized or performanceĀ optimized parameter presets including fullĀ featured refinement and editing tools.
  • Process data from any type of UAS andĀ frame cameras
  • Excellent results without requiringĀ specialized photogrammetry knowledgeĀ or experience.
  • Also available integrated into TrimbleĀ Business Center Photogrammetry ModuleĀ including all survey tools combined withĀ survey hardware and GNSS base-lineĀ processing.
Highlights

Automated Accuracy and Flexible Workflows for Any UAS Mapping Project

Modern computer-vision algorithms combined with proven state-of-the-art photogrammetric techniques produce accurate results automatically, with minimal manual interaction:
  • Open for any fixed-wing, multi-copter or handheldĀ frame camera.
  • Special support for high-quality GNSS/IMUĀ data for stable processing in challengingĀ conditions or to eliminate need for groundĀ control.
  • Intuitive guided workflow concept for theĀ photogrammetric novice which perfectlyĀ integrates into any photogrammetricĀ workflows.
  • Fully compatible with Inpho photogrammetryĀ modules from Trimble.
  • Streamlined workflow to automatic featureĀ extraction with eCognition and perfectĀ integration into Trimble Business Center forĀ classic survey applications.

Area Mapping Projects

  • Interactive context-driven and automatedĀ editing capabilities for geo-referencing andĀ point clouds including morphological dataĀ creation (e.g. break-line measurements),Ā classification, filtering, and many more.
  • UAS-specific local-area ortho editing toolsĀ Expert tools, simplified forĀ Non-photogrammetrists such as automaticĀ correlation-based terrain following, enablingĀ precise stereoscopic measurements withoutĀ requiring stereo-experience
  • Complete engineering workflows including CADĀ tools, contouring, gridding…

3D Reconstruction Projects

  • No need for known camera parameters,Ā approximate image orientations or referenceĀ points (optional constraints).
  • Sparse point cloud generated from geo-referencingĀ tie points – perfectly suited for e.g.Ā stockpile computations etc. ( no need for extra dense-matching run)
